Is there a forum for confused Limewire nubes?
 
If there isn't maybe there should be. I have a few Qs:
When I do a search for something, and say 100 results are shown in the box above the window I might get 20 results or so shown in the window. What I am wondering is where the other 80 posts have gone, and how do I access them? Or do the #s add up to the 100, and if thats not it, what are the #s for anyway? Also, is there anyway to me to decide what I want to download? EG, I may have 10 things lined up that I want to dl, but 2 are top priority. However when I start Limewire, it starts to download something else, and I can't pause that dl, to dl what I want. I am on dial up, so I only dl one file at a time, because if I spread the bandwidth between more than 1, it sucks big time.

That's just a start,

And Thanks for any and all advice!

Your DL Issues
 
Since you have a Jurassic Modem, I suggest you DL one file at a time this way you can DL in the "priority" you choose. Yes the number of DL's counts multiple hosts for example, if SEARCH says 12 files found, and you see (filename) with an 11 in front of it and another (filename) under it, there's your SEARCH 12 files found. Somebody mentioned DL the file with the most hosts, that is true for several reasons. The two most important are speed and the likelihood of it being a good file (though not always--there are some chowderheads that feel it necessary to perpetuate bad files). Obviously, if available try and upgrade to a faster modem. Best Of Luck
